To say In Heaven is about conquering grief would be oversimplifying everything Tim Showalter has achieved on the eighth studio album from Strand of Oaks. A stunning, hopeful reflection on love, loss, and enlightenment, In Heaven is a triumph in music making, and a preeminent addition to the Strand of Oaks discography.

CMDSMFH sees principal songwriter Jasamine White-Gluz mining and exploring fresh avenues, bringing you an orchestral interpretation of choice tracks from Motherhood. Once again pulling sonically from every corner she's mastered before—such as nu metal, trip hop, and shoegaze—the 5-song EP shows White-Gluz settling No Joy into a strange and confident harmony.

Marking his first full-length album in six years, Five-Time Grammy Award nominee and diamond-selling performer, actor, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Robin Thicke makes a return with the long awaited new album, On Earth, and in Heaven.

It is a dialogue across the ages when, towards the end of his life, the seeker of meaning Johannes Brahms (1833-1897), baptised as a Protestant, chooses biblical words recorded between 300 BC and 50 AD to set to music. The fact that there is no mention of Christ, suits the skeptically minded Brahms. Questions were ultimately more important to him than traditional and ecclesiastical answers.

Es ist ein Dialog über die Zeiten hinweg, wenn der Sinnsucher Johannes Brahms gegen Ende seines Lebens biblische Worte zur Komposition auswählt, die zwischen 300 vor und 50 nach Christus niedergeschrieben wurden. Dass Christus dabei nicht genannt wird, kommt dem skeptisch eingestellten Brahms entgegen. Fragen waren ihm letztlich wichtiger als traditionelle und kirchliche Antworten.

Esoteric Recordings is pleased to announce the release of ‘Rollin’’, a new box set featuring all of the albums recorded by The Steve Gibbons Band released between 1976 and 1978. This legendary rock band was formed in the mid 1970s and comprised some of the finest musicians on the Birmingham rock scene.Steve Gibbons had been a figure on the Birmingham scene since the early 1960s and had been a frontman of the group The Uglys until they disbanded in late 1968. In 1969 Gibbons founded the group Balls with Trevor Burton and Denny Laine, but that group fell apart within 14 months before Gibbons to join the last incarnation of The Idle Race in 1971. This line-up, which also featured Dave Carroll and Bob Wilson on guitars and Bob Lamb on drums eventually evolved into The Steve Gibbons Band with the arrival of Trevor Burton on bass and vocals. Burton had been a member of The Move until 1969 and was a member of the group Balls. With this line-up in place, the band perfected their hard, driving blend of rhythm and blues and rock, touring the pub and club circuit in Britain. In 1975 they were spotted by Peter Meaden (The Who’s first manager) and were soon signed to The Who’s management stable.
